Falco and Osisko Agree to Extend Loan Maturity

Falco Resources Ltd. (TSXV:FPC) (“Falco” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that in connection with the C$10 million loan (“Loan”) provided by Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (TSX:OR) (“Osisko”) on May 30, 2016, as amended, that both Falco and Osisko have agreed to extend the maturity to December 31st, 2018.

As per the Loan, Falco and Osisko shall negotiate in good faith the terms, conditions and form of a silver and/or gold stream agreement (“Stream Agreement”), which shall be substantially in the form typical for such transaction in the industry, whereby Osisko may provide Falco with a portion of the development capital required to build the Horne 5 Project (“Stream”). In this case, the principal amount of the Loan and any accrued interest will be applied against the Stream deposit. No interest shall accrue on principal amount as from June 1st, 2018 unless Osisko and Falco fail to enter into a Stream Agreement by August 30, 2018, in which case interest shall accrue retroactively from and after June 1st, 2018. Accrued interest shall be payable upon repayment of the principal amount when due.

Notwithstanding the original terms of the Loan, in the event that on the maturity date or the earlier date on which Osisko makes a demand for payment of the Loan, should Falco and Osisko not have entered into a Stream Agreement, Osisko will have the option to request the Loan to be paid in cash together with the accrued and unpaid interest or to be granted a 1% net smelter return royalty on the Horne 5 Project and accrued interests will be paid in cash.

Under certain events of default, Osisko may, at its option, require the repayment of the principal amount and the accrued interest in cash.

The extension and amendment to the Loan are considered a “related party transaction” under Regulation 61-101 respecting Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions(“Regulation 61-101”). The extension and amendment to the Loan are exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation pursuant to the exemption in section 5.5(b) of Regulation 61-101, as the shares of the Company are not listed on a specified market, and are exempt from minority shareholder approval pursuant to section 5.7(1)(f) of Regulation 61-101, as the Loan does not have an equity or voting component and is on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Company than if the Loan was obtained from an arm’s length party.
